Terrible, just terrible

By far my least favorite tobacco that I've ever smoked. I bought this looking for an aromatic that has complexity, but this has none. First off, you get hit with an overwhelming citrus note that is anything but pleasant. Then comes the burn. This thing smokes hot, tastes like chemicals, and will be sure to sear your mouth. There are no good things about this tobacco. It belongs in the trash. When I got to the second half of the bowl, all I could taste was ash and chemicals. Not a nice experience....Read More
Slightly fruity, with hints of nut.

This isn't something that's going to knock your socks off, but it is a pretty good smoke, nice thick creamy smoke with hints of citrus and a little bit of nuttiness. It's worth buying a tin.
Delightful and light flavor of citrus and fruit.

This tobacco has a delight light flavor of fruit and citrus, preferred choice on a cool breezy spring afternoon.
It is mild and does not bite

When tin first opened very strong berry flavors. It packs well, lights well, and burns politely. As for strength, most aromatics I've smoked seem to contain no nicotine at all, but Rainy Day is different on that count too.
Delish!

Wonderfully fruity aro. I've been looking for a replacement for the now-hard-to-find Orchard Mist, and this should do nicely.
Wow!!!

Bought this based on the "Tobacco Search" tool ranking the room note as "Very Pleasant". Unfortunately, I didn't get much from the smoke or room note. It was Ok, but not a stand out warranting a re-order.The tin note reminds me very much of Chacom #2 (purple). The fruit listed on that blend is plum, and I suspect they used it for this as well....Read More
Beach BBQ Time!

I normally smoke English/Balkan blends, but during the summer months, I prefer Virginia blends. This blend has a wonderful tin note that makes me think of Hawaiian BBQ. Boozy and fruity but still tastes like tobacco. I let mine dry for ~30min and had no lighting issues. Burns nice and the flavor in the smoke stays. My new go-to summer blend....Read More
Virginia Forward

Product: Ashton Rainy Day 50g
Rainy Day has a nice flavor that lands somewhere in the middle of mango, peach and orange, but ultimately it is a touch too bright and Virginia forward for me. Unlike others, I find that it wants to run a bit hot. Some will like it, especially as a warm-weather aro, but not a must-have for me. Would love to see this topping in a blend with more Cavendish.

Edit: One excellent use of this blend is to add tang to straight Virginias (e.g., Mac Baren No. 1). The bright fruit flavors naturally complement the Virginia profile, and you can add as much or as little as you like.

Be sure to dry it just a bit. Lovely sweet fruit aroma that certainly reminds me of some kind of fruit I’ve smelled before but I can’t think of the name, it’s right on the tip of my tongue. Perfect for a warm spring day. The wife loves it.
